Fluffy Fridays- Diaper Parties/ Happy Heiny CLOSED

So...you may realize by now, if you've been following Fluffy Fridays, that there are many, many cloth diaper choices out there. Right? Right...anyway, how do you really know if a certain brand is the best for you and your baby? Well, you could buy one of each kind, which can be costly...or you could have a Diaper Party! Yep, kind of like those other in-home parties you have been to...except this party will include several diapers for everyone to check out. It is always nice to see something first hand before you buy!

Kristine, from U.P. Diaper Parties by Everything Birth is a Diaper Party Consultant. Kristine has sent me a Happy Heinys diaper to try and review.... AND has offered a giveaway!

Here is the diaper we received:

First thoughts... looks pretty nice.

The Happy Heiny diaper is a pocket diaper and it comes with two three layer microfiber inserts, a smaller one a larger one.

I love the fit of the Happy Heiny. It fit Annabelle beautifully,

The overall fluff factor isn't bad either. With both inserts in the pocket it can get quite fluffy, but I found that one insert was enough during the day.

I had some issues with wicking at first...it took a few washes, but the last few times we have used this diaper we have had no problems. I can't say if it was our fault, something that happened in shipping, or if this is just a brand that requires a few extra washes.

I really love the two snap tabs. These diapers have my favorite snaps so far. This diaper probably wouldn't fit on a newborn, but Happy Heiny's says they are confidant that an 4-6 week old 8lb baby will fit in the diaper properly.

Overall, I think this diaper is a pretty good diaper and we use it fairly frequently.
